No less than six more stories were nominated for best story of 2011, but unfortunately they did not meet the threshold of the secondary nominations by other nominators. Their authors however will be informed – because whether your story in the end qualified or not, it's still an honour to be nominated for best story of 2011, isn't it?
At least all these six stories were nominated elsewhere, too, so their fans can still vote for them!
Read on to learn about this year's voting - with 3 votes in each category!

But first a solid round of applause for Hogan MacGyver,
who - even after she was forewarned that nothing of her own work had been nominated -
attacked the task of double-checking with enthusiasm.
Thank you for a terrific job, Hogan MacGyver!
